The Seiko Prospex Glacier Save the Ocean SPB297J1 is a phenomenal, high-end diving watch, that is inspired by Seiko's iconic 62MAS. You can see the 50 years of history of making diving watches, but also Seiko's endless pursuit of creating meaningful watches.

The SPB297J1 has a very comfortable wrist presence with its 40.5mm diameter, while also having a very reasonable 13.2mm thickness and 47.6mm lug to lug distance. This ensures it it will be a good fit on nearly every wrist, just what the 62MAS design is so well loved for!

Under the hood is the in-house Seiko Cal. 6R35 movement. This sturdy workhorse features an impressive 70 hour power reserve. Of course the watch is also very capable of dealing with water, due to the 200m water resistance.

This model is part of the 'Save The Ocean' line, of which Seiko makes several designs, in collaboration Fabien Cousteau, the grandson of the legendary ocean explorer Jacques Cousteau. A portion of the sales from these timepieces are donated to ocean conservation efforts.

But when we write so much about the specifications, we don't do justice to the stunning dial. That is the true highlight of this amazing watch and a truly highlights one of Seiko's biggest skills: making phenomenal dials. While usually you have to choose between substance and a pretty face, the SPB297J1 has it all!
